  • Many a geeky weekend have I been on but none have impressed me more than the SFX Weekender. The first of many or so they think…

  • One of the best TV Moments this season…

    Glee has to have been one of the best shows to air this season, so good that the FOX Network actually made it a priority to order a complete season.  The show takes those guilty pleasures, the songs that you are ashamed to like but love them all the same; and puts them into remarkable [...]

  • So there I am, with my usual flippant commentary on Big Brother 10 when I notice Davina, host of Big Brother & Big Brother’s Big Mouth forgetting to use her newly discovered #bb10 tag.  Well this is what happened…

    @ThisIsDavina: So angel fancies noiren!! She is a love magnet. When she comes out I’ll have to [...]
